Thanks Alan... I followed your suggestion and went to visit the Website.
They did a good job in screening/scanning all the 12000 files on my
harddrive. I am using NAV and have updated (live update) last month.
Norton Anti-Virus has always been a lifesaver for me and so far, no virus
has ever pass through my NAV AutoProtect. A good insurance, I should say.
PC-cillin did a very thorough scanning on all my files in every single
directory. It gave me a "congratulation no virus was found" after about 40
minutes from signing with them as a member. Although it did not find any
virus on my system, it did find my corrupted data file which I kept in one
of my Temp. File directories. I should say, very impressive! Yes, I would
also recommend to all PCSOFT members to take advantage of this and let's all
help make this newsgroup virus free and safe for everyone!
